Sorry for being absent all this time. We had a tragedy in the family and I was helping out and was in no mood to write. It's funny when something dreadful happens, one expects the whole world to sit up and take notice. One is shocked when the world you remembered is exactly the same. The world keeps on spinning and moving as it always has and your are stopped in your tracks (I'm awesome at cliches). I guess that is the way it should be.

Hopeful, step by step my desire to write will come back and my laziness will be dealt with. What things make you happy?
